was taken down with what the doctors
called "bronchitis'(an ordinary cold) and was
very sick for two weeks She seemed to be
filled deep in the chest with phlegm, which we
We're unable to loosen! she could not lie down
at ALL but had to be held upright, else it caused
her to cough. severely. The physician dld not
give her any relief, although the prescriptions
were changed every day and sometimes twice a
day. This treatment was continued about ten
days and we finally determined to try bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. We obtained
bottle and after giving few doses she was
relieved, breathing easier, and throwing off the
phlegm and getting to sleep, getting well in a
few days, and we believe VIC owe her life to the
use of Chamberlan's Cough Remedy. Our old
est girl is subject to Group and has had several
severe attacks, but the Cough Remedy has
brought her out all right with but two good
doses, and we would not go over night without
bottle IN the house. We have great faith in
it," Signed, Wilbur E. Wells, Lulie L. Wells

In existence. 1t Is very easily put out of or

Fergus Falls Journal.
While the HERALD is IN fnll SYM
pathy with the Keller law, so far as
its operations are calculated to bring
within the purview of the assessor the
capital employed in private banks,
and render the public more secure in
its banking operations, yet it cannot
permit the assertion go unchallenged
that either of our private banks in
this village are "wild cat" concerns
AS a matter of fact the Bank of Sank
Centre and the Citizens Bank are as
safe. solid, and conservative as any
state or national banks IN Minnesota
They not only represent an abundance
OF capital, but they are managed on
strictest principles of business integ.
rity, and no one need fear unlimited
financial transactions with them. In
this respect the Keller law has no val
ue so far as Sank Centre is concerned
There is not a village Of its size ir
Minnesota which has more reason t.
be well satisfied with and proud o
its banks than our own. Its nationa
and private banks challenge conf
dence in financial circles, and are en-
titled to and receive the respect o
their large business connections.

It is not certain whether John Book
will keep his establishment open OF
not.
It is the general opinion that one
saloon will pay, but one thing is GER

GREY EAGLE ITEMS,

On Friday, as the west bound freight train
was switching at this place, the head brake
man used some hard language TO some of the
men that were loading cars on the side
track. Sam McClin took offered the fellow
some advice which made him more wrathy
than ever. He threatened to do Sam up
with coupling pin. but not finding one han
dy he took sled stake and followed him TO
the depot and struck him heavy blow over
the lefteye from behind, which knocked him
senseless. The brakeman then ran TO the
train. which was just pulling out. Esquire
Davis teiegraphed to Sank Centre to have
him arrested, and sent Constable English
after him on the passenger train. English
found him at Morris and brought him back
on Saturday. He plead guilty and was fined

The farmers of Minnesota are lily pre-
pared for free trade. in Its broad sense. ANY
ono struggling under q burden or debt will
feel such policy very keenly.-Saak Centre
Herald.
Will the HERALD explain what
reparation Is lacking?-St. CIond
Times
A very large reduction, if not the
total exst,nction of debt. With free
trade will inevitably come two econ
omic changes large surplus OF
industrial labor, now employed In
protected manufactures, and very
marked shrinkage in values of all
kinds. Tens of thousands of work
men will be thrown out of employ
ment by the closing of various factor
les which cannot possibly compete
with those of England and continent
tai Europe, where wages are lower
than is consistent with comfortable
existence. The labor thus set free
has but one avenue open for employ
, ment- agriculture. The Eastern fac
tory operatives will swarm to the west,
where land is now cheap and will
then be still cheaper, bringing with
them the accumulations of their past
high wages, and engage in farming.
Entering the field comparatively, if
not absolutely free from debt, they
will wage fierce competition with our
farmers, many of whom are cultivat-
ing mortgaged lands with encountered
machinery, and as is inevitably the case
with increased production and de-
creased consumption, prices OF farm
products will be forced downward
Money will have largely increased
purchasing power in every direction
except debt-paying. Obligation:
entered into under the present con.
ditions of manufacturing and agricul
ture must be cancelled,i possible, un
. der the two-fold adverse conditions o
cheapened lands and increased com
petition. While this condition O
affairs may not so seriously affect thu
farmer who is out of debt, it will worl
unprecedented hardship upon th'
farmer who owes money. The pro
portion of old debts to new val
ues will be greatly increased. Th'
former is fixed factor-the latte
will shrink very largely, and none,
borrowed when Its purchasing powe
was small must be paid when it
purchasing power is great. The cred
itor class-the capitalist whose wealth
is represented by note and mortgag'
will be the gamer, and his gain
will accurately measure the losses o
the debtor. He who borrowed dol
lar when money represented a pur
chasing power equivalent to one day
wages, must pay it when the dolla
represents two days labor. He mus
pay two hundred cents on the dollar
for he must work with his own hand
and his own capital twice as long t
discharge the debt. Therefore it j
